Rafting in Hanmer Springs provides fantastic family fun for everyone and a great adventure!
Hi Allison, thank you for your great review. We are happy to hear you enjoyed yourselves in the company of our cheeky guides. They are always down for some fun in the sun. We hope to welcome you back again soon. Cheers from Hanmer Springs Attractions Team
great couple of hours except for the steep walk back up to the shop.
Hello there, thank you for your review. The name Waiau gorge explains it all, steep cliffs surrounding the river. We do offer complimentary ride down to the boat for those who struggle to walk on steep terrain. Ask our staff next time you're around. Cheers from Hanmer Springs Attractions Team
Fantastic trip, great guide and friendly staff. Had 4 children onboard and they totally loved it. Highly recommended. Thanks.
We booked a rafting & jetboat experience last minute for a good price. The experience itself is actually pretty boring. Floating down the river, chit-chat, not really interesting background info (i don't mind the housing prices) and no sincere enthousiasm or interest by personnel / instructor. After floating for 1,5 hour we boarded the jet boat. Overall: It's fun - in relation to the lastminute pricing - but you don't miss much if you skip it, definitely skip if you pay the full prize.
Ryan was a great instructor fun and Informative.

Lots of fun for the family
This was the perfect experience for our 9 year olds. They loved the thrill of rafting, cliff jumping and the water fights along the way. The bonus was the jet boat ride back. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this for families or anyone wanting to get out to view the sights on the river. It was a fun way to spend a couple of hours.
